DS failed his APFT for the first time after taking many before (he is an MS3). He had a grader who said he was not doing the sit-ups correctly, which he has never been told before and only counted around 45 of them. He usually scores between 62-67 sit ups and maxes the push ups and run. Not...

Hi, No one has started a conversation about the packing list for Norwich, so I just wanted to start one and ask a few questions. It says civilian clothes are not allowed, so we cannot bring any at all? Even pajamas? Also, it says to bring a wristwatch. Are GPS running watches/ smart watches...

Hi, I had exotropia when I was younger and had three corrective eye surgeries and now have almost perfectly aligned eyes according to my doctor. (my last eye surgery was 8 years ago). I do not have any current problems with this, so will it be a problem with DODMERB? I read the Army ROTC...

Hi, I got into my top schools, which are my top two schools of intent. I also applied to my #4 and 5 schools of intent on the AROTC application. So, I wanted to take off the number 3, 6, and 7 schools because those were just safeties. However, the website is not letting me edit my schools of...

Hi all, I had a lazy eye as a child and had corrective surgeries, so now my eyes are almost perfectly aligned and cause no issues. Also, my eyes are correctable to 20/20 and my prescription is not strong (less than the max of +/- 8). However, my eyes are not able to see 3D (such as 3D images or...

Hi all, I was accepted to Norwich and hope to go there so I have been training for the Army PFT (core, strength, running workouts) and I was wondering if at Norwich, AROTC does any swimming training so I know if I need to train for that also. Thanks!

Hi all, I was recently accepted to my top 2 schools, Norwich and Citadel. Thank you to everyone here who helped me with answering questions and the admissions process! I was wondering if anyone had any experience with these two schools and what their major differences are or what their...

Hi, I applied to Norwich and The Citadel a week ago (And the AROTC scholarship for 1st board). I'm really nervous because it looks like I'm going to get a C+ in honors calculus, which I have really struggled in. I don't have any other C's and have not in the past. Is this going to ruin my...

Hi, I recently applied to The Citadel and was wondering if anyone knew if The Citadel was rolling admissions. I am pretty sure that it is, but could not get confirmation on their website. If it is rolling admissions, does anyone know how long it usually takes to hear back on a decision...

Hi, I sent in my application today to Norwich University and was wondering if anyone knew how long it generally takes to hear back since it is rolling admissions (and because I am very nervous since it is my top school). Also, does anyone know of anyone who has been accepted yet? Thanks!

Hi, I finished and submitted all of the documents for my AROTC application, including the interview (which was completed a week ago) and the deadline for the first board is this Friday. However, my application still says I am an interviewee and the PMS interview is pending. Is the application...

Hi, My application for the 1st board for the AROTC scholarship is complete, but I hear the fewest amount of scholarships are given then. If I do not get a scholarship during the first board, will I be considered for the 2nd and 3rd? Do I have to resubmit application somehow or do they keep...

Hi, The order of the steps of the AROTC Scholarship process is a bit unclear, so I just want to reaffirm that my understanding is correct. 1. Finish online application 2. Take PFT and have coach submit it 3. Send ACT/SAT and transcript, GPA 4. Wait to be contacted for interview 5. Wait to...

Does the major you pick affect the chances of getting an AROTC Scholarship? For example, is someone who puts down engineering more likely to get it than someone who puts down criminal justice, since that is a more popular major for people applying for the scholarship? Thanks for the help.

Hi, My daughter is interested in ROTC and is applying for the 4 year AROTC scholarship. Would it benefit us to speak with an ROTC rep from a college? Also, if we do should we just speak with one at a local college or go to the college representative at the college she is applying to (Norwich...

Hi, My daughter is going into her senior year of high school and is seriously considering going to Norwich University. However, the tuition is very expensive and she would definitely need to get a scholarship. She is applying for a 4 year Army ROTC scholarship, but I hear not many are given out...
